While the executive director of SLOCOG says, “There are some very smart people who are looking at this corridor” (“Officials eye roundabouts for Highway 227, residents ‘not convinced,'” Oct. 14), I am not sure they have common sense.

Maybe if they drove in both directions during the rush hours they might have a clue.
